Jay Leno has more than 181 cars and 160 motorcycles parked in a private garage near Burbank Airport, according to the DuPont Registry.

The former Tonight Show host has turned into an avid car enthusiast since his rise to fame.

The gearhead comedian even hosts a YouTube channel (@jaylenosgarage) discussing the cars housed in his garage.

“I like them all. Whatever I’m driving at the moment is [my] favorite,” Leno said in an interview with CNN.

“I enjoy it. It’s fun to do.”

The garage boasts an estimated value of $52 million, DuPont Registry said.

A diverse range of vehicles, from passenger cars to firetrucks, trains, and hypercars, undergo meticulous detailing by a skilled team of auto historians.

Current cars – including McLarens, Mercedes, and Tesla collectibles – line the modern section of the garage.

The new-age tech heroes are capable of blistering speeds beyond 200 miles per hour.

Leno drove Tesla’s Model S Plaid, which the EV maker claims has “the quickest acceleration of any vehicle in production.”

Dozens of cars in the comedians fleet feature refurbished parts.

Older models include a 1941 American LaFrance Series 600 pumper Fire truck, a 1906 Advance Steam Traction Engine, and a 1909 Baker Electric.

The Advance Steam Traction Engine is a 13-ton cylindrical vehicle shaped like a train.

Giant wheels with tires allowed the early 1940s vehicles to cart heavy cargo on American roads.

“I’m a huge steam enthusiast,” Leno said in a video describing the train-like hauler.

“It’s a traction engine. It can plow, it can haul … it’s a pretty beefy machine.”

The steam truck has a maximum speed of 4 mph.

The vehicles in his garage come from a diverse set of backgrounds.

Leno is a car collector who owns vehicles from both foreign countries and those made in the USA.

Mazda and Tata Motors cars were imported from the Asian market.

Lamborghini and Fiat are among the European auto manufacturers in the lot.

Leno also purchased domestically produced Ford and Tesla vehicles.
